text: Mengqiu (the Chinese media workers)
victims, ruins, the people crying, face serious and exhausted rescue and the military, police, all of this, the last full week of the TV screen.
2008, for many people is unfortunate. Our country has suffered 20 years of unprecedented disaster. However, no matter who the survivors or the nationals of countries other people, we have witnessed a new history, a new era in the growth of Chinese history. Her growing self-confidence and let us happy.
this country in the years of suffering and the development of gradually become a mature and self-confidence. Her people, with a stronger core of cohesion. She retained by the historical heritage of tolerance and kindness, are also constantly learning in the Western countries have been given a collaboration among civil society, such as a sense of responsibility and ethics. This is me, as one of the media workers from the earthquake disaster relief in the experience of deep feelings.
days, immersed in television coverage brought about by deeply shocked them. My colleagues and I have edited a special issue of earthquake relief and a column. Every day, we have to come into contact with all kinds of shocking images, need to interview the witness at the scene of various earthquakes. Exposed to all kinds of information, let us feel sad at the same time, to feel hope. Only at this time, we can feel the "hope"word, for many people, how important it is!
I do not want to repeat them in this tragic story. I would like to say to that, those who brought us "hope"of the story.
rare earthquake rapid response
for the grading of the earthquake, I think many of my friends have noticed this information: 7.8 (May 18 adjusted to 8). This is a rare few. Earthquake each grade level a difference, a difference of 30 times the strength. This is a common sense. 1995 in Japan, the Kobe earthquake of magnitude 7.3, 6,500 people were killed. This time, Wenchuan earthquake-affected area of the earthquake of high intensity, by the World rare. The earthquake affected area reached more than 100,000 square kilometers. This area, equivalent to two and a half the island of Taiwan. Half of the Asian earthquake was felt the shock. Caused by the earthquake in Sichuan, Chongqing, Gansu, Shaanxi, Yunnan, Henan, Hubei seven provinces, autonomous regions tens of thousands of people dead. It can be said that Wenchuan has replaced Tangshan, China's contemporary history can not be replaced by the disastrous term.
to deal with such a large area of the moment of natural disasters, it can be said that the Government has made the fastest response. China's troubled history, people have become indifference to death, thus cultivating the world's most massive bureaucratic system. However, if the bureaucratic system due to various reasons has become bloated and incompetent, unable to normal operation, which means that it will not be able to shoulder the responsibilities of rapid response, it will become a huge obstacle impeding relief. In this relief process, We are pleased to find that the present regime under the emergency response mechanism is efficient, but also positive.
Apart from a few hours after the earthquake that Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao rushed to the disaster area, the fastest response to the earthquake zone is the army. Earthquake just the past 14 minutes, the army dispatched the first medical team. Central to the mobilization of the armed forces, such as referring to the arm, very flexible and quickly. The mobilization of the armed forces into this earthquake relief among the biggest bright spot. It is said that the central authorities mobilized more than 130,000 troops. In addition to the relief and rescue of the professional's Armed Police Force, has also mobilized the armed police mobile division, and other mobile units. 38 armed police division chief of staff of the division and Senior Colonel Wang Yi led a 200 mobile units, the risk of heavy rain and landslides, 20 hours of walking 90 km, the first to break through difficulties and dangers into the epicenter Wenchuan.
to earthquake, the Central mobilization has also mobilized in addition to the large number of armed police outside the regular active-duty troops. The six military regions of the troops, only the Nanjing Military Region and the Shenyang Military Region, did not mobilize the troops. Land, sea and air force and Second Artillery Force (that is, the implementation of the strategic nuclear deterrent forces rocket) all mobilized. The troops were dispatched to disaster, in addition to the rich mountains and plateaus of the 13 Army combat experience and known as the Iron Army 54 Army and other military trump card, there are the central strategic rapid reaction force, set during the Korean War of the airborne Hehezhangong 15 Army (that is, the famous Shanggan Ling Huang Jiguang unit). In a short span of 72 hours, the central authorities have adopted air assembly of the more than 10,000 people over the army. This build-up rate, from a military point of view, is very alarming. 2005 Hurricane Katrina in New Orlean after the attacks, the U.S. military is the reaction time of 80 hours.
addition to the military response, the health system and public security system is also very rapid response. Some government agencies in peacetime bureaucratic habits seem full, at the moment of high efficiency, performance ratio. Chengdu Military Hospital a few hours after the earthquake in open space on the structures of the field hospital, the transfer of all in-patients. The Government also fully organize themselves and to ensure the smooth flow of water and electricity and telecommunications. In thousands of base stations were damaged circumstances, mobile communication in 72 hours of largely been restored, it is a miracle. Disaster areas at all levels of government and the performance is very worthy of recognition. Many government officials and their families are casualties, but has been Qiangren sad, stick in their posts. In here, you can set out to the staff there Beichuan County, the county, Public Security Bureau, the armed police colonel, and many of the cadres.
CNN reports which had an interview with a local village Party branch secretary. His family in the quake were buried, but he has been in charge of rescue work started, or even too busy to take account of the life and death of family members. The reporter interviewed him, he tears. In the hands of the walkie-talkie came the latest information, he does not even have enough time to wipe tears on a turn around a run away. This scene brought to the CNN host of deeply shocked, in good time for a few seconds, the two host Daizhu, relatively speechless. In May 14 from the air Maosi parachuting to the Maoxian 15 airborne hero, a non-commissioned officers called the Tao Ren and his family in the epicenter, Shengsiweibu. He also could not put aside the worries of the minds, at great risk for a parachuting. This amazing fortitude and calm, to convey such a message to us that they believe is worthy of the people, is relying on the people. They are our heroes.
earthquake disaster relief information can be conveyed by the two is that we allow me to the quality of the people of this country has a new awareness. Before, we understand the whole of China, can be used to be a popular idea summed up: We have that in China since 1949, due to autocratic rule and the destruction of the Cultural Revolution, the whole country Liyue breakdown, moral turpitude, the World Wind slump, corruption Rampant. China has abandoned the traditional Confucian thought, and refuses to turn into Western religion. Lack faith, we believe that no matter the country's economic development how quickly, if we can not find a suitable beliefs, the whole of China will become a giant mud foot, the possibility of collapse at any time. However, this earthquake disaster relief, we can see the light of humanity in four flashes, we can see how unknown people with a strong force in maintaining our moral life and the bottom line.
suicide Sung universal relief
the victims, a suicide teachers to protect students, at the last minute physically block the child's kindergarten aunt and a mother buried under the ruins, her body under the child only a few months. The mother waiting for the rescue of the time, difficult to use the phone records under this a message:
"Baby, if you can survive, we must remember how much I love you!"
this baby in the mother's concealment, Haofa not injured, until someone he Jiuzou. The mother was with him at Yin and Yang Yong.
in the last few days, how many people can not know the whereabouts of their loved ones, the determination of the number of people in the face under the tears quietly. However, in such a serious natural disasters, everyone is a country of the Great Wall. I am very pleased to see that our traditional culture in the country, "justice"in civil society, between the ordinary people to continue the tradition. "Benevolence"is love, love ourselves, love others. Others in need of love, every person in not hesitate to pay, from the desperate rescue of victims of soldiers who, braving the risk of aftershocks of the Prime Minister who, we all can be found "love"the light.
Looking back, when the disaster areas most in need of plasma to rescue the injured, set off a nationwide upsurge in blood donation. I Tianhe, Guangzhou City in the streets, you can see the people queuing up to donate blood on the 100-meter. For a time, because of too much blood, even beyond the capacity of the blood of many, to an emergency halt.
"benevolence"is the responsibility of the state and society's responsibility. Open media and the rapid response of the Government, clearly explain their responsibility in a crisis stage for understanding. From the army at all costs get through blocking the road, you can see them for the responsibility of understanding. From those because job duties, not taking into account family of doctors, nurses, teachers, workers, we also see the responsibility for understanding.
in the relief process, there are many humane measures. The whole nation, on how to disaster relief, disaster relief in the process demonstrated by the overall thinking, is also a responsibility of the performance. After the earthquake, the military quickly issued instructions to the ministries of Sichuan Ji asked the soldiers to find out about the situation, the military stability in order to prevent the epidemic, epidemic prevention departments in the affected areas has started a large-scale spraying Xiaodu Shui work. News media also showed a high degree of open mind and take the initiative to convey information to the relatives discrete search services. This is also the community's concern on the whole, is between the people of the responsibility.
I think we are now entering a stage of the moral reconstruction of the country. Is not what we found the source of the spirit of moral renewal, but because of natural disasters and again, we find that their own blood the traditional strength of spirit, we will ruin this one, so that we can explore the culture to continue the spirit of the Millennium Seedlings.
disaster is not terrible, terrible disaster and we are numb. Fortunately, we are no longer such a numb nation. Phoenix has Nirvana, we have been reborn.
not objective: the Chinese media workers confession
as media workers, I'd like to say that there are many feelings. After the earthquake, my personal feelings have not allow me to take a neutral stand on earthquake relief indifference to the evaluation. Indeed, the Western media, which reported the earthquake disaster is a calm and objective. They will be concerned about the number of casualties, the deceased's concern groaning, the concern of many dramatic scenes, and even earthquakes are concerned about the dark side. However, if I take this position, is my own country and the nation irresponsible behaviour. I am not a bystander, and should be part of disaster relief staff, even my own power is so low. In the whole country to feel sadness of the earthquake, I can not over-exaggerated sorrow and anger, while others should be expressed and I prayed for the victims, an expression of indomitable confidence. To me, this government has done almost beyond reproach. The international community's response, the response of our Hong Kong and Macao compatriots, I am encouraged and impressed.
I can say, perhaps only a blessing: Zhusheng, peace, tranquility to the deceased.
Below concentrate on what I have said several widespread interpretation of some of:
earthquake can be forecast »
the earthquake itself it is very difficult to forecast. Crust of geological changes, in the long term, there is indeed a prediction of the areas, the long-term prediction is possible. But short-term forecasting, earthquake to accurately forecast the time of day, very difficult. Geological movement is a physical sport, but this campaign there is a great uncertainty, not through established mathematical models derived. In 1975 China had forecast a 7.3 of the Haicheng earthquake, and an emergency evacuation. Even so, there are still more than 10,000 casualties. The 1976 Tangshan earthquake prediction is impossible. In addition, the intensity of the earthquake and seismic intensity is the two concepts. The current strength of the earthquake in the Grand Turk common classification system to calculate, that is, we often say that the the Richter scale. However, seismic intensity is another concept. Since the earthquake is divided into shallow seismic and deep earthquakes, so that even in high intensity earthquake, shallow and deep the damage caused by the earthquake it is not the same. This time the earthquake and the Tangshan earthquake, a shallow earthquake, which particularly serious damage.
In addition, some said that prior to a certain extent signs of the earthquake, the Government has not timely evacuation. These symptoms include a seismic cloud, a large number of unusual animals, such as Lai Hama span, cats and dogs emotional restless, and so on. In fact, Beichuan County Public Security Bureau and several of his colleagues was a feeling restless dog out of the office to survive. And he's under more than 100, survived only one-third of the people.
dependent on the differences before the earthquake trillion for the evacuation of the problem. I would like to, "Katherine differences,"whether as a scientific basis to issue earthquake early warning » As Chinese medicine, "Wang Wen asked all"to determine the cause of a patient, which in the eyes of Western medicine is extremely unscientific. We are totally dependent on the natural sciences from the West transplant system, and more will not rely on the various non-scientific "Katherine differences"to determine the occurrence of the disaster. The 100,000 square kilometers of land, equivalent to an emergency evacuation of a small country entered the wartime state, it can determine whether the evacuation, many need each other to permit scientific discovery. In 2007 a typhoon attack in the vicinity of Shanghai and Zhejiang Province, the local has conducted several millions of people to evacuate. Although it proved that China has the ability to carry out large-scale evacuation, but the evacuation is based on a comprehensive meteorological data on the correct analysis, earthquake prediction and evacuation, far unable to achieve this level. For those who study earthquakes, we need to maintain an understanding. After all, they bear the pressure is much larger than the rest of the scientific staff.
why the disaster areas by the destruction of most of the houses to schools »
Associated Press reported in the disaster areas the situation, once said, in 1976 after the Tangshan earthquake, the Chinese Government building standards used in the implementation of a high standard of earthquake measures (building code), but whether or not to implement this measure is very A problem. Therefore, the collapse of the disaster areas a large number of schools has become a concern of the reality.
The Associated Press said, I do noncommittal. I am here to say-two facts: First of all, when the earthquake happened, happened to be at all schools start classes after a few minutes, the students sitting in the classroom are concentrated. Secondly, the school is second only to the crowd outside the cinema theatre the most intensive areas. China's national conditions of China's decision to the school class size is considerable. Because of the shortage of teachers resources, and in a long time to have been alleviated, China's current local public high school is basically a large class of the school, the size of each class of students as many as 50-70 people. I graduated from secondary schools in more than 10 years ago before the class enrollment quorum is 48 people, the entire class before graduation and the number has swelled to 63 people.
because classes are large in scale, leading to the construction of classrooms when the construction area is very large. Decides also that the structure of the classroom in a large span of, no support beams. Moreover, taking into account the issue of classroom lighting, teachers on both sides about the need to Kaichuang Hu, can not be used as load-bearing walls bear the weight of the entire building. Can only be a real load-bearing walls on both sides before and after the classroom wall. Large-scale collapse of the school classrooms, there are structural reasons,. Moreover, we understand that the collapse of many classrooms are old buildings, using a typical load-bearing brick walls, concrete block caps. Brick load-bearing capacity of the poor, by people now have basic knowledge. In the 1990s, many new buildings have changed the structure and materials. In the North-secondary schools, a five-story floor of the teaching building collapse all, it was built in 1994. In addition a five-story teaching building was built in 2004, all of its bottom two floors collapsed, and then maintain the integrity of the three-tier above.
However, even if new construction is also not escape the strong earthquake shook. During the earthquake, according to our reporter at the scene reported back to the North-county government buildings also collapsed by half, as the paramilitary of the Public Security Bureau building sector also suffered heavy losses. Dujiangyan Chinese medicine hospitals have been razed. The reason why the school by the media attention, it was buried inside the victims are our hope and future, so people feel particularly sorry!
whether the school building collapsed because of construction quality, or because of objective reasons, I believe, Head of concern to the public in the future there will be a recognition of the so people can answer.
Why does not promptly sent the air force carried out aerial rescue »
first need to clear the fact that the Air Force is not a panacea. Wenchuan earthquake occurred in the northwest section of the Sichuan Basin, the terrain is extremely complex, is typically an Alpine valley site. The average in the region 1,000 meters above sea level between -2000 meters, but the surrounding mountains, rugged terrain. Some high mountain altitudes can reach 5,000 meters. This is used for disaster relief helicopters, almost to the limit of the altitude. If deployed fixed-wing aircraft dropped the case, due to weather conditions in the disaster occurred two days after the very poor, not only can not guarantee the accuracy of air-dropping aid, even the safety of the aircraft also can not guarantee that.
mountain valley between the airflow change is rapidly changing. Alpine wind shear is the killer helicopter. Even if it does not consider the safety of the helicopter, it is hard to say, in Dayupangtuo, low clouds weather conditions, the number of helicopters, difficult to judge.
in this disaster, exposed China's general aviation industry an extremely serious problem. Later, even in a position to provide helicopter rescue the situation, not enough or good enough helicopter put into use, and in particular the lack of relief helicopter. In the army mobilized the Jinan Military Region, two army aviation regiment under the circumstances, to participate in the rescue helicopter-but more than 100. China also can not lifting large-scale production can be life-saving equipment for heavy helicopters, but also not imported from abroad similar aircraft. In medium-sized helicopters above, only 20 years ago, imports of American-style "Black Hawk"helicopters and Russian-metre -171 aircraft. Although the two aircraft in the relief process demonstrated the excellent performance of the plateau, but after all, its role was limited.
the use of helicopters is a very big risk. 1979 shocked the world of the Iran hostage incident, the U.S. sent the Iran hostage rescue eight helicopters encountered Desert Storm, some from helicopters, and a helicopter collided with the tanker, resulting in more special forces members killed. Finally forced to give up all the helicopters. In the 1998 Yangtze River flood disaster which is said to have large military helicopters have crashed. This shows that the use of helicopters in fact have considerable limitations, such as the Hollywood film is not a U.S. helicopter which is so all-embracing.
The paratroopers
The same is true. Parachute itself is a very dangerous occupation. Do not see them landing on the head of the parachutes that they are safe. In fact, when paratroopers landed at the impact of the ground is very large, many old paratrooper and the knee bone will be chronic spinal injury. Moreover, the parachuting of the spread is very large, it is necessary to assemble together is very difficult. The earthquake relief in the process, from the scene and the subsequent judgement of the picture, only the first parachuting is May 14 of the 15 people parachuting. Picture, then the very thick clouds, through clouds, the paratroopers were able to adjust its position to find a suitable landing point of time is also running low. Data showed that the aircraft's altitude is 4,999 meters above sea level, a high-altitude parachute (paratroopers were due to tactical requirements, the high jump in more than 1,000 meters below). In order to ensure the accuracy and safety of landing, parachuting, the paratroopers were not wearing oxygen masks and goggles. They must think in the mountains and rivers, find little valley between the landing site, I would like to have 15 warriors take the risk of airborne express our sincere admiration!
finally, to the relief of the earthquake criticized by some of their own.
Although the military showed great spirit of heroism, the generals and the colonel to colonel leading EU, opened the desperate fate of the channel leading to the earthquake zone, but on the whole still lack disaster relief experience, unexpected circumstances, it is inevitable A lack of preparation. Judging from the television screen, many soldiers and armed police soldiers not wearing a helmet that is, into the disaster scene, and this is very dangerous. Some of the soldiers without gloves, his hands Bakai depends entirely on the ruins. Another point is that many of the soldiers wearing Junxue, but began to wear shoes relief. All in all, the military soldiers for the protection of the individual is not sufficient. Protection and logistical supplies are not in place in it. Many soldiers fought throughout the night, but often
